Been a tough day

So sorry to hear this. They are just like family and it really hurts. Praying the treatment works for her

I want you all to know how much I appreciated your support and kind words. I went back and read all the posts a couple of different times. Thank you all for taking the time to try and make me feel better. Some people are faced with much more than a sick dog and they pull through with the help of others.

Douce didn't make it.

Oh, My Captain, I know how hard it is.  We always can find a way to blame it on ourselves.  I've done it...everyone does it.  It must be part of our nature to feel that way when a dog who loves you without condition dies.  We think, "If I'd only done this." or "If I hadn't done that".  It's just the way we are unless we're heartless SOB's.

Please think of the life after the kennel this dog would have had had it not been for you.  She was loved by both you and Gail and she gave that love back.  You did well.  I'm so sorry for your loss.  Damn emotional suffering is a part of life.  If you weren't suffering over Douce's death you wouldn't be the kind man that you are.

That's sad news, Bob...Fortunately Douce was with folks who cared, and loved her..she'll be remembered.

Very sorry to hear about Douce Bob. My thoughts and well wishes are with you.

The sad comes and goes. I expect it'll be that way for a while. She was a good dog.

Sorry for your loss Bob.  They earned the name 'man's best friend' for a very good reason.

Bob & Gail, Sorry about your dog. I know that is hard, we have lost dogs also and it is never easy. I just wish that they could live longer , 10-12 years isn`t enough.

Bob, we have a little Shitzu that is "Lucy's Dog". I know that I'm going to miss him when he's gone, even thought he's attached to her hip! It's tough losing a family pet member like Douce. Condolences to you, friend.

I know it's hard to lose a beloved pet. You guys showed him love he wouldn't of knowing.  And he is truly at peace.  My thoughts and prayers for you and Gail.
